Publisher's Summary

In Ben Coes' latest, Eye for an Eye, Dewey Andreas faces the toughest odds of his life as one of China's most powerful men has decided to do whatever he must to take down Dewey - and inflicts a horrifying loss.

When Dewey uncovers the identity of a mole embedded at a high level in Israel’s Mossad, it triggers a larger, more dangerous plot. The mole was the most important asset of Chinese Intelligence, and Fao Bhang, head of China’s Ministry of State Security (MSS), responds to the discovery and brutal elimination of the mole, by immediately placing a kill order on the man responsible - Dewey Andreas.

Once he learns who is probably behind the attack - and why they are after him - Dewey goes rogue, using all of his assets and skills to launch a counterattack. Andreas must now face the full weight and might of the MSS, Chinese Intelligence, and the formidable Fao Bhang, if he’s to achieve his one last goal: revenge on a biblical scale, no matter the odds or the armies that he will have to fight his way through.

Andreas - former Army Ranger and Delta - is a man of great skills and cunning. His opponent, Fao Bhang, is ruthless, determined, and with no limit to the assets at his disposal. In this conflict, there are only two possible outcomes. And only one Dewey Andreas.

It doesn't pay to fall for Dewey. Figured something was going to happen to bring out the warrior in Dewey and sure enough. Love Dewey, love Coes and I hope there isn't a long wait for the next book. Perhaps I should say I hope there is a next book. Dewey is cranky, mean and indifferent to life which makes for a fun, rough ride. Tough though .. I liked Jessica.

Although we expect our heros to be larger than life, his ability to not only survive unbelievable car wrecks but come out shooting. Never getting shot even after hundreds of bullets are fired at him, but he only needs 1 shot to kill every time. I expected him to start leaping tall buildings in a single bound by the time I got to the end

What was most disappointing about Ben Coes’s story?

No basis in facts what so ever, a plane cannot not just fly around, land in foreign countries with no government involvement especially in China. I now this was fiction, but this was fantasy

Any additional comments?

Although I enjoyed the earlier Dewey books, I did not enjoy this one and struggled getting through the second half. Will probably pass on the next one.

What made the experience of listening to Eye for an Eye the most enjoyable?

I have been working my way through a lot of thriller authors and Ben Coes is hands down my favorite. The characters are brought to life and each of them seems plausible and realistic. His stories never lag but are always moving. I like the way he jumps from scene to scene and yet the cohesiveness of the story is always maintained. Ben…hurry and write some more!!!!

Who was your favorite character and why?

Dewey Andreas is my favorite hero. He struggles with his emotions, he is tough but approachable, committed to friendship, loyal, patriotic, bad ass but funny, tough as nails but tender when needed. He is the most well rounded action hero thus far in my listening library ( and it is a big one)

What about Peter Hermann’s performance did you like?

I am an audible book addict and especially with mysteries and thrillers. Peter Hermann is the BEST narrator that I have ever heard. I love the way he uses different accents, inflections,pauses and characteristics to differentiate each character. I hope to hear more of him in the future!!!!

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

One of my complaints with the heroes in these tough guy action stories is that they are so unemotional and dysfunctional that they will never have a long term committed relationship with a woman. In this story the readers get to see the grief and agony that Dewey experiences and that makes the hero much more realistic. It just makes me root for him all the more.

Any additional comments?

I can't wait till the next one and I hope Ben Coes uses the same narrator because he is PERFECT.

Ben Coes needs more books. More Dewey. This book is the best but very sad at times for what Dewey goes through. But in the end The hero comes out on top but is left with the scars of an emotional struggle that is worse than anything Dewey has endured to date. Mr. Coes hurry up with Book five.

I have to say I had just listened to 2 books from my favorite authors and were slightly disappointed with them. So when I downloaded this I had low expectations. This was a GREAT book for engaging, I laughed out loud when the hockey scene played out. This book really kept me n the edge of my seat and the narrator did a fantastic job of adding inflection and "grit" to his voice of the main character to help you really feel the emotion of the story. I highly recommend this one!!!!
